Video: Kids act out Best Picture nominees

A little boy pretending to be a Somali pirate raiding Captain Philips’ ship might sound disturbing but this video from CineFix featuring kids acting out all the Academy Awards Best Picture nominees is adorable. In fact, I think the Wolf of Wall Street might have been a lot more entertaining if it starred the sweet-faced boys in this video. From 12 Years a Slave to American Hustle to Dallas Buyers Club, the “up-and-coming” actors and actresses in this video offer a taste of Hollywood’s most famous scenes from 2013. Maybe we’ll see one of them on stage at the Oscars some day.
